Heading Out on the Ride
As the sun began to rise, Amy, along with her friends Ross and Richard, set off on their bikes. The group was joined by a large crowd of cyclists, all coming together to take on the challenge ahead. Amy and Kyle had decided to extend the route to 200 kilometers, gearing up for a big charity ride they had planned for September.

Challenges Along the Way
Like any long-distance ride, the Nello Sportive presented its own set of challenges. From chain drops to steep climbs, Amy and her friends faced obstacles along the way.

Sharing laughs and stories with new friends added to the sense of camaraderie that comes with cycling adventures.
Fueling Up and Staying Strong
Throughout the ride, staying fueled and hydrated was crucial for Amy and her friends. They made pit stops at food stations, indulging in snacks like banana bread, jelly babies, and coffee to keep their energy levels up. Meeting the dietary needs of each rider, the food stops offered a welcome break and a chance to refuel before hitting the road again.
